Well here’s a picture of the bonkers couple Kanye West and Kim Kardashian just before their baby was born. It’s been very difficult to avoid exposure to this particular celebrity pregnancy. I don’t care anything about the couple if truth be told but like everyone I guess I was wondering what dopey celebrity ‘K’ name they were going to give the little ‘un. My money was on King Size.
But now we know they’ve only gone and christened it North West. I’m smiling as I’m writing this. What were they thinking? Not only is this going to mess up the whole family naming strategy but it’s also going to throw the Rooney’s into total confusion with their future kids (see https://pastapaulie.wordpress.com/2013/05/27/so-heres-the-tweet-from-wayne-confirming-the/).
But I think I’ve got a solution. Keep North West as the baby’s birth-certificated name but adopt an everyday family nickname (just like the Royals did with Wills and Harry) and call her Kompass.
Now that’s kute!
